Hi David, I see where you are going with this. Having a general number
for voice mail pick-up is a great idea.
combining this with "call-back" would make it even better, this would be
perfect for people with unlimited incoming call plans

there any way I can generalize this for any one in my company that
wants to use this?
At the moment I have a specific DID for my voicemail access. Is there
a way to figure out the cell phone that is forwarding the call? If I
can get this I can build a lookup table to match back to a voicemail box.
From my debug I'm guessing that it isn't possible - my RDNIS field is
empty and my DNIS field shows the final DNIS, not the original number
dialed (the cell phone).
Thoughts?
Thx.

Thanks all!
I knew that I would be treading over old ground with this one.
I'm going to play around with a few of these options.
Cheers,
Dave.

Stop paying your cell provider for voicemail; have your cell
forward to
* voicemail; it's probably cheaper and it gives you more
control with
fewer places to look for vmail.
